"It was composed through the use of the VIIRS 'day-night band,' which detects faint light signals such as city lights, moonlight, airglow, and auroras. In the image, the clouds are lit from above by the nearly full Moon and from below by the lights of the heavily populated East Coast. The city lights are blurred in places by cloud cover," reads a NASA statement.

The storm dropped a record amount of snowfall on the Susquehanna Valley. The official measurement at Harrisburg International Airport was 30.2 inches, which beat the previous mark of 25 inches, which was set in February 1983.
